How To Determine Your Value In A Company?

How can you tell that you're valuable employee to a company? I had the privilege to asked a few souls who and they had given me quite a number of answers. I don't necessarily agree with them but allow me to put them up first before I get down to what I was really up to.

Cool?

OK.

One guy told me that promotion determines how valuable you are:
member of company

If you're climbing the rank faster than your fellow batch-mate, then it goes without saying that you are something.

Really? My problem is this:

You see, I've lived long enough to see that promotion, most of the times, were tied up with so many factors. Some were reasonable and some were flat out craps.

What do I mean?

I got a friend who was made to leave his company and his replacement as a National Sales Manager was the General Manager's secret lover.

Huh?!

This is a true, honest to goodness story but I've exposed enough worm in the can already. So, enough exposure already.

Another one said:

"Being exempted from all hassle and bustle of routine task"

'Being exempted' here means 'very few questions asked when they forget to carry out a task'.

Sounds quite reasonable to me but that's not what I was looking for.

What if I tell you that I had recently discover a test to determine your value as a member of staffs to a company? Would you like to know about it?

In fact, you can carry out this test after you discover it to see if you are valuable to the company.

How's that for a quick challenge?

Oh! Don't ask me if I ever test this out because I know how much my current company value me :-)

Here's the deal...

Try taking unpaid leave for a year. Do you think the company (upper management) allow it?

Thanks to a friend (you know who you are) I discover this test a few days ago. I knew instantly, if I were to take it, the company were more than happy to hand me the pink slip, the minute I hand over my request.

Are you valuable to your company? Can you validate that? What do you think of my newly discovered test?
